    It’s freezing here too. Got to use the snowblower for the first time the other day for Winter Storm Grayson or Bombogensis as it’s been called.

    While the end result might not be so great, that might be my favorite weather term ever.

    This weather is making it hard to be motivated. It's been below zero for over a week now with a nor'easter on Thursday that dumped more snow we didn't need. Its 5 below now but real feel is 28 below with freezing rain for the beginning of the week.
    I've done well and just maintained this week. Here's to hoping next week will be better.

    Weigh in week: Week 2
    Weigh in day: Sunday
    Previous Weight: 176
    Current Weight: 173.8

    I have started tracking daily again but usually just over the limit I set myself. But still lost 2.2lbs! Next week will be better and I'm going to start walking to work a few days a week...knee permitting!

    Exercise : 30 min walk ( regretting that now )
    Water:2.5 liters

    Stay warn peeps in the US and stay cool peeps in south of OZ.

    I'm still figuring out how this all works - sorry to be slow! I have actually been - exercising every day for at least 20 minutes (usually more), eating within my calories and also tracking everything I eat. I just haven't been so good about posting about it! My goal for this week 2 is to get a bit better on that front. My weigh-in day is tomorrow - and it feels like it has been a lot longer than a week since I last weighed. Life just really rolls along in January! I haven't done the exercise for today, but will head out soon for that. I'll post later once I get to the end of the day and see how I did against my food plan! Go Slimsons!!

    Sorry to be late to the party! I think I accidentally left the group in December, and then never found my way back. Many thanks to @AB0215 for hunting me down and bringing me back!
    I'll be your "cheer squad" for January! And will catch up on everyone's post soon.

    So about me....name is Kim. I live in Massachusetts and teach special ed. I like to run and to lift, and in the warmer months love going to the ropes course. I've been struggling with an injury (finally headed to the dr. this week), so that has been really frustrating. I'd lost about 70lbs over several years, but then over the past few years have gradually put back on about 12lbs. Basically every time I had an injury, I gained 2-3lbs. So I determined not only to not gain, but I actually want to try to lose some of the weight, even with the current injury. It is going to be tough. The goal is to lose 10lbs by the time the warmer weather arrives in May.

    Not sure where we are in the weigh in's, but as of Fri was 150.0. Weigh in day is usually Thursday.

    Had to days I slipped up. Need to get back on track. Need to sit down and plan my time to exercise and what I’ll do. It will help be accountable. Too easy to say next time or later if you have no plan

    We all have days that don't go as planned, but there's always another chance---it's called "TOMORROW" :)
